Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Do you need worktop repair in Ampthill?
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A chipped edge
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Dents and gouges
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
Questions to ask before booking
- What prep work is covered
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Ampthill
- Granite & marble
